For a successful recycling program, rules must be followed. Recycling cart contents are city property once placed in the cart and/or at the curb, permitting auditing.
- Per City code: Sec. 26-152. - Ownership of solid waste
Sec. 26-204. - Recovery of recyclable or recovered materials
Recycling is evaluated through curbside audits. If you have placed unaccepted items in your recycling cart, you may receive a tag or phone call to educate you on the recycling program guidelines.
Households that do not comply with the provided feedback and continue to misuse their recycling carts may have their cart removed.
